The soulful roar of a jazz innovator
Roland Kirk's versatile instrument manipulation creates a unique sound.
As the title "Overflowing Tears" suggests, a torrent of emotion bursts forth as music. The miraculous technique of playing multiple wind instruments simultaneously is a musical necessity that goes beyond mere acrobatic feat. Rooted in the traditions of blues and gospel, it also incorporates the experimental spirit of free jazz, transcending the boundaries of genre.
